Set (next) focus on TextEditBox

[Mauro_Gerber]

Hello

I want to automate entring numbers in a window manually or by a barcode scanner and create a certain flow for inputs.

The idea would be to enter the next object as a parameter like:

teb = text edit box("example",set width(160),set nlines(1),<<setscript(my_expr),<<nextObj(XYZ)) 

or by the command <<setfocus() for MouseBox

This would make it possible to design a flow through the boxes and re-focus on the box itself when a series of inputs are needed (like the << restore focus after click(1) for ButtonBox).

I think this request is still relevant if JMP17 doesn't offer this functionality. I have also made wish list item with wider scope Allow SetFocus to be used with interactive display elements (TextEditBox, Button...)
